comment What is the right way of creating bilingual book with poetry?
Sorry, Maieul, and thanks for your offer, but unfortunately I'm quite busy now and can't dig up that project and try to reproduce the bug (which I've successfully worked around in a way that I actually like more :)

comment What is the right way of creating bilingual book with poetry?
Initially I wanted to have commentaries for stanzas arranged as in books.google.com.au/…, for example. But since I couldn't get it to work I ended up doing it like this: scribd.com/doc/40146250/Poetic-Edda-Old-Norse-English-diglot (github.com/Manticore/poetic_edda for code).

comment Conditioning behaviour of a macro on whether on top of a new page
By the way, this approach does not work if \text is longtable (probably because of the interference of hacks, as usual). Is there some other solution?

comment How to make longtable respect \nopagebreak in the beginning?
Just in case: as a workaround I just put section header in the first line of the table and use \\* longtable macro (which prevents line break inside the table). A bit ugly, but works.

comment Is it possible to add \chapter after a few \part's at the same level of hierarchy?
Thank you, both of your methods work. There is only one issue: no empty line between 'Fourth chapter' and 'Conclusion' in ToC (to visually separate them), which I fixed by adding \addtocontents{toc}{\protect\vspace*{\baselineskip}\protect} before \chapter{conclusion}.

\part* does not put the part in the ToC; and, moreover, I'd prefer a chapter, not a part.
